Exclamation Are they a FRAUD

Is CP Racing justy a fraud. I bought the T2 scoop on Sept 19 and I have still not recieved it. I have sent two emails and left phone messages and they will not contact me back. The line is allways a machine when I call. Has anyone else had a bad experience with them or what?

Some people love 'em, some people hate 'em.

I personally would NEVER do business with them again. Others say to be understanding, your stuff will arrive eventually... Me, I say that if you don't order from them, they might be able to remove their heads from their asses and figure out that good customer service is just as important as a good product, if not more so.

Took me over 4 months to get an item, worst company i've ever bought from.
then the item was defective, and would of had to send it back and wait 4 months for repairs.
sold it on eBay got some $ back, check out the feedback section search thier name, lots of horror stories....

Yeah, everybody who orders from them EVENTUALLY gets their stuff as promised. There are many cases of impossibly late deliveries from them. As far as I know nobody has ever been straight-out bugger'd by them, though I could be wrong.

smnc (Spencer) lives close to them, goes to the shop all the time and swears by them. But as I said, it takes forever-and-a-half to get anything.

It would probaly be faster. I don't see how places like that can stay in business. I would pay more money through someone else to get the same product if I knew I was going to have it in a week instead of months after I order it. I mean how hard is it to put an item in a box, put an address on it and a little thing called postage. I could draw them a stick figure graph and mail to them to show them how it's done. Defintley never making that mistake again. I had planned on spending mucho money on parts through them because they were cheaper but not now.

Part of the shipping problem has to do with customs, since they are in Canada.But I have no doubts they are understaffed too......

The problem wouldn't be shipping because at one point they told me that they would send an email when it ships. Never saw that.

Call the FBI if they are in a different state. Interstate fraud is federal.

Reading comprehension ain't your strong suit, is it?

As for CP racing, you're just better off to never do business with them. They have no customer service and their products are often as not substandard.
